What is the primary purpose of pilot testing in developing psychomotor tests?

To establish the criterion score for the test items
To determine the statistical qualities of each test item
To identify possible flaws in the test and determine the total time of administration (correct)
To select the number of trials necessary for each test item

What is typically established with reliability coefficients in motor performance tests?

The objectivity of the test items
The criterion score for the test items
The validity of the test items
The stability of the motor performance tests (correct)

Why is it important to include both genders and all ages and skill levels in the normative sample during pilot testing?

To make the test more objective
To ensure the reliability coefficients are group-specific (correct)
To establish the reliability of the test items
To ensure the validity of the test items
